| Popis: | It was experimentally demonstrated that short-period metamorphic InAs1-xSbx/InAs1-ySby superlattices with ultra low bandgap have properties of a Dirac material. Cyclotron resonance and interband magneto-absorption peaks in superlattices with ultra-low bandgaps demonstrate a square root dependence on the magnetic field for a range up to 16 T (energy range up to 300meV). This directly indicates the linearity of the electron dispersion. The Fermi velocity can be controlled by varying the overlap between electron and hole states in the superlattice. The dependence of the cyclotron resonance energy on the magnetic field parallel to the superlattice plane demonstrates that the electron dispersion in the growth direction can be characterized by an effective mass of 0.028m0 in a superlattice with a period of 6 nm and 0.045m0 in a superlattice with a period of 7.5 nm. Extreme design flexibility makes the short-period metamorphic InAs1-xSbx/InAs1-ySby superlattice a new prospective platform for studying the effects of charge carrier chirality and topologically nontrivial states in structures with the inverted bandgaps.
